Re: Partitioning a Hard Disc

I had an acer laptop, mine came with recovery disks. If he uses them , it will go back to factory settings and his current setup will be lost.

Get him to bung your work IT guys £20 and ask them to back up his data, install Windows with the partition sizes he wants...everyone is happy!

Chances are they will do it instead of proper work!

Carefully power off his laptop, put it back in its box along with all the disks and then take it somewhere tell them what he wants done and get them to do it.

Seriously, I dont wanna be rude but your mate sounds like a numpty where this stuff is concerned.

Hee hee, said Numpty was reading it over my shoulder as I was. I'm glad you put it so well, I was dreading the ending to that post :D He's still playing now, I just can't be bothered to look at it!!!

If there is no data on F & D, delete them, resize C to required size, create D from whats left. If there is (was) data on either F or D then as he's been playing around there's a good chance thats now corrupt (and the C drive may be as well) it may be worth doing as suggested, start from scratch with fresh install etc
